UK GOVT: BREXIT 'IMPACT RESEARCH' IS INCOMPLETE

Leaked UK government documents predict the British economy will grow more slowly outside the EU - under any deal scenario.

The analysis suggests economic growth over the next 15 years could be 8% lower than if the UK was staying in the bloc.

However, the government insists the studies are incomplete and do not take into account the type of exit arrangement it hopes to reach with Brussels.

IN: "They await…
OUT: …revocation."
